Punt Road Chardonnay 2023

This is the most delicate and fine-boned Chardonnay of my time at Punt Road. Half of the wine went through malolactic conversion, otherwise nothing much of note in the winemaking; it’s the vintage driving everything here. The nose shows citrus, vanilla and white flowers. The palate has lemongrass and ginger, linearity and a touch of class, which manifests itself in a slight waxiness and the restraint of the fruit character. - Tim Shand, Punt Road
